Named after an Arabic slang word meaning veiled, sheltered, hidden or obscured, MOHAJABA is an intimate portrait of Nehal, a 23 year-old Gaza native who is attempting to realize her dream of becoming a filmmaker. Along with her partner Badreia, the two overcome a myriad of difficulties to create their productions in a society in which no women work professionally in film. At the same time, MOHAJABA is a revealing look at Gaza itself, from a perspective rarely seen in the mainstream media.
